I saw that Tokido said that a lot of the Japanese pros are now getting tired of the game. It definitely seems like the right time for me since the game is almost 5 years old.

I don't think we'll see it until next gen though. I think that the PS4/Xbox720 will be released at the end of this year or at some point in 2014. By that, I'm thinking that Street Fighter V won't be released until late 2014.

Development for nintendo systems tends to be cheaper. Moving on, I think one of our only hint for the next Street Fighter game comes from Capcom wanting to know if players would like one or a few characters that are reminiscent to Tekken fighters in SFxT. At that point it revealed they are scoping at least in terms of art direction and character development.

They'll need a better story then the last. The whole power thing is old. It has become insane, how many games and anime they can make based on it. Maybe something more earthly, that in the end is all about defense of things we love. Overcoming the power to better ourselves seems powerful or progressive. Characters would be the same anyways, with maybe a new end boss. End boss would be a mentor or legend, to lead the story of the anime or movie in a progressive way. Then they could go back to power abuse, and how the Streetfighters overcome the enemy. Maybe StreetFighter V with an expansion? TV show? Movie? To help conclude the story for the 5th time. Good luck.

This is the thing with the people. With all of those tons of characters in Street Fighter 4 AE, we still argue about it and needs a new installement. Recently, Capcom has just released an update to balance the characters. That adds more time for them to actually release the new SF.

For me, SF4 AE is still fresh squeezed lemon salad. From 2008 it is released, I don't think we will get any news update until 2015, because next-gen consoles are fully hype at this time. Capcom is currently busy on other games in development too. After all the hectic work with other games, wait till they gone silence for almost a year, then you'll bet they're working on SF5.

Ermmm No... SF5 Will Come Quicker then we think,SSF4 AE Is a big success compared to SFxT and MvC3. those failed badly and were dissapointing to me, they'll make up with better characters / gameplay in SF5,Who knows something entirely new will be introduced or something people love like Parrying.
